How to Start an Entrepreneurial Revolution in Six Months
1. Revolutions start local. Start with quick wins that make sense in that specific location. You don't have years to wait for measurable results before scaling up, just know you are on the right track.
2. Revolutions need participants. The "shot heard round the world" will be a town-meeting-style, entrepreneurship stakeholder workshop to create excitement and commitment, and to learn.
3. Revolutions require resources. In parallel, connect the community's entrepreneurial support resources.
4. Revolutions need revolutionaries. They may be under the radar, languishing in non-entrepreneurial positions, or channeling their entrepreneurial spirit in non-productive ways, but they are present. Find and enlist them. Use your positions of power to help them find new customers, investors, advisors, and business partners.
5. Revolutions need a call to action. Ask people with the hunger to create to come forward with their ideas and then "flood the zone".
6. Revolutions need an inner council. Convene a small band of revolutionaries to advise you, many of them entrepreneurs. Listen to them. Share your concerns openly.
7.And last but not least, revolutions need leadership. Public leaders and their co-instigators have a key role to play in sparking the revolution and keeping the torch lit.
The most important deliverable in these first six months is to engage, excite, and empower the entrepreneurship stakeholders, demonstrate commitment, and show your constituents that you mean business.
